Communications

The SendPro C, SendPro+, SendPro C Auto connection uses these ports and protocols. The system will require access through your network and firewall.

• All communication is initiated from the system via ports 80 (HTTP) and 443 (TLS).
• All communications from the system to the back end system are in the form of XML messages.

Ports

Port 80 (HTTP)

• Web Services
• TeamViewer (remote access software)

Port 443 (TLS)

• SendPro C, SendPro+, SendPro C Auto sends requests to refill or audit its PSD (Postal Security Device) when the user requests it or an inspection is required. Audits occur if the PSD inspection date has expired.
• Transaction records from the SendPro C, SendPro+, SendPro C Auto are automatically uploaded when a user message appears (within three days of the mail being generated).
• O/S updates and PB Application Software and Rates Data updates.

Port 53

• DNS lookup

Important: If your IT department uses a rules-based method for allowing specific ports to pass traffic on their network for port 53, you must allow both UDP and TCP traffic to this port.

Advanced Network Requirements

SendPro C, SendPro+, SendPro C Auto initiates all communication (via HTTP or TLS), so it can safely sit behind most corporate firewalls

• High-speed network connection
• SendPro C, SendPro+, SendPro C Auto supports 802.11n WiFi WPA, WPA-2 PSK, WPA-802.1x (LEAP) protocols.
• Due to security issues, WEP Wireless Security Protocol is not supported.
• Both 2.4 and 5 GHz frequency band wireless is supported.
• SendPro C, SendPro+, SendPro C Auto communicates to external web services via HTTP over Port 80
• SendPro C, SendPro+, SendPro C Auto communicates to PB secure server(s) via TLS 1.2 over port 443
• SendPro C, SendPro+, SendPro C Auto uses Port 53 for DNS lookup
• Pitney Bowes requires a minimum network bandwidth of 384 kbps (upstream and downstream) to operate, but we recommend 1 Mbit/sec for best performance
• Pitney Bowes recommends that DSL or cellular devices are not shared across multiple SendPro C, SendPro+, SendPro C Auto systems
• Customer owned web filtering devices or software, as well as SSL packet inspection should be disabled for these ports as they can affect performance or could prevent functionality.
• SendPro C, SendPro+, SendPro C Auto internal base and tablet communication uses a subnet that consists of IPs from the 192.168.10.240 to 192.168.10.255 and 192.168.10.96 to 192.168.10.111 ranges. When the SendPro C, SendPro+, SendPro C Auto is connected to a network that has a default gateway which uses any address in these ranges, the SendPro C, SendPro+, SendPro C Auto will not be able to communicate on the network because messages can not be routed properly.
• Wired Ethernet supports 10/100 Mbit speeds.

If you are unable to connect to the internet, ask your IT department to check the internet settings before you contact DMS. If you still need assistance, please contact us.
